Barcaman is already ready!

 

[Barcaman]

We got a good path to final. Not bad, not bad

 

[FC B]

We got a good path to final. Not bad, not bad

Seemingly. Inter is a tough nut to crack.

 

[FCBarca]

I expected a tougher draw but more importantly this helps with CDR & Liga competitions, to be able to compete in all 3 without the same schedule burden others will experience

 

[jamrock]

They showed what they're worth against us many times over the years.

Will not be an easy out, but over two legs we should win.

 

[FinBarcelonafan]

It won't be easy but we will come out on top! Let's gooo!

I much prefer Bayern in the semis. Inter is compact and their shithousery is harder to surmount than Bayern's more open game play.

Plus, Inzaghi is >>>>> Kompany as manager.

True true. Bayern isn't the great team what they used to be.

 

[jamrock]

I think we would beat Bayern, I don't rate kompany as a manager yet.

Bayern
Inter
Bayer

Is my ranking of who I would want to face assuming we get that far.

Some reason I think we wouldn't match up well against B.L.

 

[JamDav1982]

Bayern would be a tough game clearly.

Barca beat them but were getting dominated on ball for long spells and Barca took chances while they didnt.

I think a lot of teams like Real and Bayern will now adapt more to Barca than they would have in first half of season when all they under rated Barca and saw the high line as ripe for the picking.

Barca have to adapt.

 

[ZenI]

Lewa, take your testosterone meds!

 

[DonAK]

Benfica are a good team.

If they show up thinking the job is half done they will throw this chance away.

 

[MonteCuler]

#6 here we come

All teams on our bracket are beatable. Inter might be the most dangerous but hopefully they go out in QF

And I trust this team not to bottle it.

 

[Barcaman]

Reminder that you don't hate La Liga enough:

[The Portuguese league postpone Benfica's match right before facing Barcelona, giving them a full week to rest.

La Liga move Barcelona's league match to one day after the schedule, giving them only 2 days to rest for the Champions League.]
